LINING A RESERVOIR NEAR WHITBY.

Renewed Seismicity near Monticello Reservoir , South Carolina , 1996 – 1999

A surprising increase in seismicity started in and around Monticello Reservoir, South Carolina in December 1996, and by the end of 1999, over 700 earthquakes with 0.4 ML 2.5 had been located. This seismicity occurred in a new hypocentral region and filled the gaps in earlier seismicity at depths shallower than 2 km. The seismicity occurred in four episodes each with at least one earthquake of m...

Investigation of Salt Precipitation in Geothermal Reservoir near Sealing Conditions

The main goal of the work is to investigate the behavior of a geothermal reservoir containing salty water when its physical parameters exceed the critical values, i.e. when the vaporization process cannot be described by the asymptotic self-similarity solution. We consider a low-permeability rock, where salty water vaporizes at a sharp front, because of fluid extraction at constant pressure. If...

Near-Well Reservoir Monitoring Through Ensemble Kalman Filter

In the management of reservoirs it is an important issue to utilize the available data in order to make accurate forecasts. In this paper a novel approach for frequent updating of the near-well reservoir model as new measurements becomes available is presented. The main focus of this approach is to have an updated model usable for forecasting. These forecasts should have initial values that are...
